The Supplement Truth Checker

Search 34 weight-loss supplements, tap the ones on your counter, and get the honest verdict on each: what it actually does in your body, what the studies really show, and the safety flags the bottle leaves out. Nothing you enter leaves this device.

Read this first. No supplement is FDA-approved for weight loss. Under U.S. law, supplements go on sale without having to prove they work, and without anyone confirming the bottle contains what the label claims. This checker grades the evidence honestly, but it cannot tell you anything is safe for you. Only your Doctor or pharmacist, who knows your chart and your medications, can do that.

Medical disclaimer. This tool is for general education only and is not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and it is never a statement that any product is safe or appropriate for you. No dietary supplement is approved by the FDA to treat obesity or cause weight loss, and supplement contents are not verified before sale. Evidence summaries are honest teaching estimates drawn from published meta-analyses and randomized trials, the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements fact sheet on dietary supplements for weight loss, Cochrane reviews, the USP review of green tea extract and liver injury, and the FDA tainted weight-loss products database; individual studies vary and effects described are averages, not guarantees. This tool never recommends doses. If you take any medication, are pregnant or nursing, or have a liver, kidney, or heart condition, talk with your own Doctor or pharmacist before starting or continuing any supplement. If you develop dark urine, yellow eyes or skin, right-sided belly pain, chest pain, or a racing or irregular heartbeat while taking any supplement, stop it and seek medical care promptly.
